It's so funny, you guys talk about a conflict of interest with Jim Wolf umpiring the games. Don't you think it's a conflict of interest for MARLINS FANS to be judging how good Jim Wolf is umpiring? Geez, every time Wolf made a semi-borderline call, you guys cry out "suspend Wolf!" Please. I watched the game too, and I saw plenty of borderline balls and strikes that went the Marlins way. But as a Marlin fan, you're not going to remember the calls that go our way, only the one's that didn't. Let's not blame Looper, who allowed 4 hits (all hit sharply) and didn't fool anybody. Let's not blame Conine who left 5 men on base. Naw...it's Jim Wolf's fault we lost. Please.

I just got an email from a person who thinks I'm the Marlins I guess.

 

How can the manager replace Urbina who pitched a superb eigth inning with Looper who is a really bad pitcher. We need at least a 5 run lead before we can rely on Looper....everyone of our bull pen could have saved the win except Looper. The Marlins played their hearts out to win this game only to have McKeon blow it when they took out Urbina. You wonder why the fans are disappointed!!! I blame McKeon! How come everybody knows this but the manager!

 

My reply:

 

Hey,

 

First of all, thanks for ranting to me but there is a forum for this - http://forum.marlinsbaseball.com

 

BTW, your logic is severely flawed. We are in this position because of McKeon and Looper mainly. I take it you are a bandwagon fan or you'd know that. The fans are disappointed in a crappy outcome? Of course, but don't put the blame on McKeon. We would NOT be in the race if he didn't take this team over.

I say we ban you from these boards.

 

You are insane if you think Wolf is making calls against the Marlins on purpose.

It is funny, because when we brought this issue up earlier, Ramp and others were saying that this conflict of interest with WOlf the umpire was ridiculous. I pointed out it was a problem of perception, not necessarily one of reality. Redman pointed this out. And now, even Ramp and others have come over to our side because it makes sense. So Mave, I pose this question to you. Would you let Wolf umpire behind the plate when his brother was on the mound? And to make it even more critical, how about when Wolf was facing the Marlins? You see, you cant get around it. I say we ban you for not using any of that grey matter stuck between your ears before you bring such bold statements. You may be the one with mental issues...

It's just too much of a coincidence that the Braves get those calls and we don't.
